In this tutorial, see how to remove the wiper control lever on a Volkswagen Jetta. Before proceeding, as you will need to remove the airbag, disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.

Once done, extract the airbag by unlocking the rear clips, then disconnect the internal connectors and undo the large central nut with an M12 XZN socket. After removing the steering wheel from the column, undo the three lower screws of the plastic block and remove the indicator stalk by taking out the indicated single bolt.

To fit the replacement, follow the reverse procedure exactly.
